STX THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 241 Wilcox Gets Post in NSA A t Metn Leonard Wilcox, former Student Legislature president, was elected to a newly-created vice-presidency of the National Student Associa- tion by acclamation at the NSA's August convention at Blooming- ton. TIoe new post, one of four vice- presidencies in the organization, was created at the request of the incoming president, Dick Murphy of the University of North Caroli- na, who felt that the presidency as previously constituted imposed an exorbitant burden on one man. Murphy accepted the nomina- tion with the understanding that a new post of executive veep would be established, and that Wilcox would fill it. Wilcox reluctantly accepted the nomination, after receiving as- surance that a graduate fellowship he had won in the University In- stitute of Public Administration would still be available in fall, 1953. The well-known ex-SL leader will operate out of NSA head- quarters in Philadelphia. The Michigan delegation of 20 also was awarded the Human Re- latiois Sub-Commission, which will be handled by SL. It will col- lect and dispense information and assistance in the discrimination field. Michigan will also be host to the Finance Sub-Commission for the coming year, with SL vice- president Phil Berry and Treas- urer Bob Neary attempting to solve the . NSA's chronic monetary dif- ficulties.

A nn A rbor, Mayor Brown Spend Hectic Last Month RR T O a OTT'4,R In the largest primary election in the history of Ann Arbor, Aug- ust 3, voters turned down a re- vised charter amendment that would have given the city power to levy a 10 per cent excise tax on entertainment. The amendment rejected in the primary was a revision of a similar amendment defeated in the April 7 election. While Mayor William 0. Brown, jr. denied at the time that a third attempt would be made to pass the measure, Alderman Arthur D. Moore renewed his plea for an amendment that "would be more palatable to the voters." A series of weekly free movies, co-sponsored by the University Museums and the Audio-Visual Center, has been announced. The movies will be presented at 7:30 p.m. every Friday in Kellogg Auditorium. They are: Oct. 3--"Life Along the Water- ways," "The Frog" and "The Snap- ping Turtle." Oct. 10 -"City of Wax," "Pond Insects" and "The Mos- quito."

HIeeting of M' Section Slated An important instruction meet- ing for all students holding Wol- verine Club Block 'M' section seats at football games this year will be held at 7 p.m. tomorrow in Hill Auditorium. Because of sorority rushing and an IFC meeting the instructions will only last for fifteen minutes. Dorothy Fink, '55, chairman of the Block 'M' section, urges all people to be prompt so those who must leave early will receive all necessary information. Following the instruction period a colored film of the block Illinois section in action will be shown. This year 1600 students are taking part in the program which will be shown during three games. Mayor Brown had strongly urg- ed the measure as necessary to meet future city expenses. * * * POLIO HIT Ann Arbor hard this summer as the Washtenaw County polio list topped 26 near the season's end. Children felt the seriousness of the epidemic with closing of the Burns Park pool and the lack of space and facilities in local hospitals. The Ann Arbor parking situa- tion received another boost when the city council following a suggestion by Mayor Brown, approved purchase of the so called "Moose" property at Packard and Main for $75,000 at 'heir August 18 meeting. The site will provide additional park- ing space in the downtown area. At that time Mayor Brown also expressed his hope that plans can be drawn up and construction completed on a proposed parking structure to be erected on the Maynard St. parking lot by Octo- ber, 1953. ** * * . THE ANN ARBOR mayor also trecked to Detroit and secured the approval of the Detroit common council for several of his parking suggestions. From the Sheriff's office came reports of two attempted escapes and one successful one daring the summer months. In the most recent attempt on Sept. 11 one of the escapees was retaken after breaking his arim while .leaving the building. The other was apprehended in Detroit September 15. A special meeting of the Ann Arbor City Council will be held at 7:30 p.m. today in the Council Chambers of City Hall to discuss the proposed annexation of the North Campus area, the University Golf Course, the Botanical Gar- dens and the former Inglis prop-i erty. The annexations seemed destin- ed to get council approval with- out controversy until the Sept. 15 council meeting when Mayor Wil- 'U' Eligibility For Students , Interpreted University eligibility rules at present permit any regularly en- rolled student who is not on aca- demic discipline to participate in activities according to his choice,l the Office of Student Affairs em- phasized yesterday. Stressing the main points of the eligiblity rules which appear in full in today's Daily Official Bul- letin (see page 2), the office out- lined the duties of student mem- bers and directors of organiza- tions under the rules' jurisdiction. Any student on academic disci- pline must make it his personall responsibility to keep out of Or+ resign from listed activities, ac- cording to the Student AffairsI Office. Academic discipline in- cludes cases of probation, special probation, warning, notification and action pending on scholasticI matters. Further rulings provide that any student in one of the above positions who is enrolled in a club membership must notify his chairman of his resignation and submit a written statement that he has done so to the Of- fice of StudentrAffairs not lat- er than October 3. Chairmen and managers of ac- tivities are asked to submit a list of members to the office. While the heads of activities are not re- quired to check members' eligi- bility status, student affairs offi- cials request that they identify the activity as falling within the eligiblity rules for the benefit of participants. Orchestra Open To New Students Students who are interested in joining the University Symphony Orchestra may obtain more infor- mation by contacting Conductor Wayne Dunlap in Rm. 704, Burton Tower. The 105 piece orchestra, spon- sored by the music school, especial- ly needs strings. It is open to any student and can be taken with or without credit. Best masterpieces of symphonic literature are played in the organ- ization, which has been in con- tinuous operation since 1887. It was begun as an accompany- ing orcestra for the University Musical Society and was former- ly conducted by Thor Johnson, now conductor of the Cincinnati Symphony. liam E. Brown, jr., and Alderman Lawrence H. Ouimet lead an op- position move, calling the project "unreasonable." * * * IN A SURPRISE move Monday 20 members of the Washtenaw County Fair Society voted to sell the Fairgrounds to Washtenaw county rather than to the city of Ann Arbor. Although officials of the so- ciety have agreed to sell the fair- grounds to the city, Edward F. Conlin, representing the opposi- tion, said the present arrange- ments fail to serve rural areas. A showdown inside the society may come on Nov. 12 at the group's annual meeting. PLEDGES OF increased finan- cial support at a meeting of the Ann Arbor Chamber of Commerce spearheaded a new program of ex- pansion for the tottering 33 year old organization at a meeting on Monday night. Chamber President Albert E. Blashfield outlined a five point program recommended by the executive committee designed to revitalize the group and aid it in its struggle for survival. A State survey partyl is work- ing in the Ann Arbor area to es- tablish a definite route for the proposed beltline highway north of the city, Charles M. Zielger of the State Highway Commission re- ported yesterday. Included in the project is a plan for Plymouth Rd. (US 12) to by- pass Ann Arbor on the northern rim and link with Jackson Rd. just west of the city limits. A arriving daily! NEW BOOKS IF.
